1 Welcome to a new season of mini and youth rugby at West Norfolk Rugby Union Football Club, where we are rightly proud of the achievements and the excellent attitude of our young players. The club aims to ensure that players, coaches, parents, spectators and volunteers uphold the Core Values of rugby union, Teamwork, Respect, Enjoyment, Discipline and Sportsmanship. These values will stand our young people in good stead both on and off the rugby pitch and are reflected in the RFU s Code of Rugby. West Norfolk RUFC supports its aims that we: Enjoy the game Win with dignity, lose with grace Observe the Laws and regulations of the game Respect opponents, referees and participants Reject cheating, racism, violence and drugs Value volunteers and paid officials alike Play to win - but not at all cost Last season West Norfolk RUFC managed to both win with dignity and lose with grace and we are proud that our young teams are as renowned for their fair play as for their successes. We are also proud of our RFU Accreditation Status, which recognises our achievement in reaching and maintaining the standard of a club committed to providing a quality rugby union experiences for young players. West Norfolk RUFC is a local club at the heart of our community, with links with local schools. We are delighted by the number of players who progress up the age levels and into our senior teams. Keeping players involved throughout their schooldays and beyond means that they benefit from being part of the rugby family and from the friendships and health benefits that our sport offers. The credit for our success as a club is due to the commitment of our young players, the endeavours of the club s qualified and enthusiastic coaches, our many marvellous volunteers, our players parents and supporters and our sponsors. We would like to thank you all and look forward to your continued support. With a full fixture programme and a full programme of social events coming up, we would be delighted to see our new players and their parents and families fully involved. We are always glad to have extra help so please talk about volunteer roles with our coaches, managers or anyone on the Executive Committee. The first day of the season is always tremendously busy, so I would ask for your patience and understanding as there are many tasks to perform to ensure that the club lives up to its high standards so that your children are properly registered and cared for in the coming season. I would also ask for subscriptions to be paid by the 1 st October

2 2018 to make sure that all our players are covered by our insurance with the RFU. However, if any parent or guardian has a particular financial need this can be discussed in confidence with your team manager or John Mellor (mini and youth chair) Hopefully, this pack contains all the information you need but do ask questions or log on to the club website at A very warm welcome to the 2018/19 season at West Norfolk RUFC and we hope that you all enjoy the rugby. Yours sincerely, John Mellor West Norfolk RUFC Mini & Youth Chairman

3 OUR SPORT West Norfolk RUFC Mini and Youth section provides rugby for children of all ages and abilities. Our Mini Section caters for children of six years old (under 7s) up to 11 years old (under 12s), the club will allow children from the age of 5 to join and train with the under 7s but they cannot play matches until they are in the under 7 team. The Youth Section provides for children from 12 years old (under 13s) up to 18, at which age they can join the senior section. All age groups adhere to the RFU Age Grade Rugby Regulations (rfu.com/regulations) Regulation 15 Age Grade Rugby is a playing and coaching pathway by which clubs and schools introduce rugby in stages so that by Under 14 players have the skills and knowledge to participate in the full 15-a-side game. Each stage has its own rules distinguishing it from the adult game. This progression accommodates the changing developmental abilities of children as they mature, with the emphasis on the improvement of individual skills through purposeful and enjoyable activity. Provision is made for testing these skills in match situations during a limited number of competitive fixtures and festivals/tournaments each season. The enjoyment and safeguarding of children is of paramount importance at West Norfolk RUFC and we are committed to providing opportunities for all children to play rugby in a friendly, fun and safe environment. For a beginner s guide to rugby s rules and regulations visit rfu.com. TRAINING, SELECTION & AVAILABILITY Training for the Mini Section is on Sunday morning from 9.30 am on match days we meet at am for a kicking off at am. Any alterations will be notified by the team coach or manager. At West Norfolk RUFC we want to ensure that all children have opportunities to play, selection for individual matches being the responsibility of team coaches and managers. Training for the Youth Section is on Sunday mornings from am, matches usually kicking off at am on Sunday. Alterations will be notified by the team coach or manager. West Norfolk RUFC will aim to maximise playing opportunities for all, with selection for particular matches the responsibility of team coaches and managers. All training and home games are held at the club house at West Norfolk RUFC, Gatehouse Lane, North Wootton, King s Lynn, PE30 3RJ FESTIVALS & FIXTURES WNRUFC minis play home and away fixtures and also attend festivals of rugby. Home and away fixtures differ from training sessions because teams usually meet at the ground at am for a short warm up session and the games normally begin at am. These fixtures may be against one club where two or three games are played and often finish with a joint activity. However some fixtures are arranged where three clubs are involved and these sessions are organised in a round robin fashion and can take longer finishing around noon. Festivals of Rugby are more complex events and often involve many teams playing in several pools. These festivals are about playing rugby and not based on competitions for trophies.

4 The finishing time could be as early as pm or it could be as late as 2.00 pm. Parents and Guardians remain responsible for their children at training/matches and are encouraged to stay, especially if their children are in the Mini Section. Punctuality Children should be in rugby kit ready to start sessions on time, especially on match days. Please let the coach know if your child is unavailable to train or play as they will not want to let team mates down. Get to know your team s coach and manager who will be glad to chat and receive constructive feedback or information regarding your child. Insurance All children playing rugby for an RFU club are covered by the RFU s personal accident policy, details of which can be found at rfu.com/insurance. Medical expenses are not covered by the RFU and therefore you may like to consider adding your child to any private medical insurance that you may have. NECESSARY KIT As with most sports, players need kit, at the club this will be: rugby boots, socks, shorts and shirt, mouth guard and water bottle. The club colours are grey with cerise hoop. Team shirts should be worn on match days. Shorts should be navy. Kit and items like studs are available from the club shop. Boots, with safety studs, should be certified to IRB regulations. In warm, dry weather trainers or moulded boots may be acceptable. Mouth guards are strongly recommended, and you can obtain custom made mouth guards. We normally arrange for a dentist to visit the club at the start of the season, please see mini/youth notice board or your team manager for details. Any other protective equipment is worn at the discretion of the parent / player but must conform to IRB standards (a reputable sports shop can advise). Wearing layers means players can discard items as they warm up. Players will need a set of clean clothes to change into after training or matches. Players drinks should be provided, especially on hot days, when sun screen may be needed.

5 COACHING Young players are coached under the RFU Age Grade Regulations and boys and girls train and play together up to and including the Under 11 age group. Beyond this, boys and girls play separately, for safety reasons. All lead coaches at West Norfolk RFC are qualified to UK Coaching standards. We aim to have for each age group at least one Level 1 qualified coach, which means they are trained and accredited. If you are interested in becoming a rugby coach, please contact the Club Coaching Coordinator. REFEREEING The club has qualified referees to officiate at matches. However, to cover all matches every weekend, we are always actively recruiting referees. You do not need to have any previous rugby experience as training is provided. Please contact the Club Referee Coordinator for more information. VOLUNTEERING We very much welcome your help with the running of the club. It takes a great deal of work to ensure everyone can train and play. So if you could help in any way, for example coaching, managing, refereeing, helping in the kitchen or at social events, fund raising or with the website or publicity please join our fabulous army of volunteers. If you could contribute a little time each week contact the Club Volunteer Coordinator. To achieve the RFU recommended minimum ratio of adults to children - 1:10 for children over 8 years old; 1:8 for children under 8 years old and 1:6 for children under 7 years old we need to recruit volunteer coaches and managers each season. SAFEGUARDING CHILDREN & VULNERABLE ADULTS At West Norfolk RUFC we are committed to safeguarding the welfare of children and vulnerable adults. Everyone works in partnership to promote children s welfare, health and development and all allegations and suspicions of harm will be taken seriously and responded to swiftly, fairly and appropriately. The RFU is committed to ensuring that all children enjoy rugby union in a safe and enjoyable environment. The RFU requires any individual engaged in a Regulated Activity to undertake a Disclosure & Barring Service (DBS) check through their club in order to work with children or vulnerable adults in accordance with the RFU Regulation 21. The RFU operates an online edbs application system.

6 For further information regarding the safeguarding of children or vulnerable adults can be found on the club website or by contacting the Club Safeguarding Officer: Tara Crumpler Tara Crumpler will be available most Sunday mornings in and around the clubhouse; if unavailable please contact John Mellor Assistant Safeguarding Officer and Mini and Youth Chairman. Clubhouse Facilities The club runs a full bar service on match days and training days. Hot food and drinks are usually available at these times too. A real log/coal fire adds extra warmth when the temperature drops! Players, families, young and old are all welcome; and the atmosphere is relaxed and friendly. This provides a great opportunity to get to know your coaches, managers, team-mates and their families better, and also to "network" with other age-groups, pooling ideas, resources etc. The clubhouse displays pictures, posters and advertises training events, coaching courses and social events, such as club dinners, the Annual Ball, and ad-hoc events around Christmas, Halloween etc. Additionally, sponsored pre-match lunches are held periodically throughout the season, and tables or individual places can be booked. Great fun! These activities raise money for charities and the club (and therefore your team) so your participation and support is important, welcomed and encouraged. SPONSORSHIP & FUND RAISING Each year we endeavour to raise funds for the club through events and sponsorships. If you might be able to help or suggest possible sponsors please contact the Club Sponsorship Officer Ben Flores on or at West Norfolk RUFC, Gatehouse Lane, North Wootton, King s Lynn, PE30 3RJ or the Chairman. FIRST AID In the event of a player being injured, in the absence of the parents the team officials are responsible for deciding whether further medical assistance is required. Parents and/or guardians will be contacted as quickly as possible. The club has invested in First Aid training and there is on site someone qualified in Emergency First Aid during training or matches at the club. TRANSPORT In most instances it is the responsibility of parents, not the club, to transport their child to and from the club or nominated meeting point. If parents make arrangements between themselves this is a private arrangement and at the parents discretion.

7 In the event of a late collection coaches and volunteers will attempt to contact the parents, wait with the child, preferably in the company of others, notify the Club Safeguarding Officer and remind parents of their responsibility to collect their child promptly. Photographic Images We encourage the taking of appropriate images of children involved in rugby celebrating the Core Values of the sport. The RFU s guidance for parents and the paid and volunteer workforce can be found on the Safeguarding pages of rfu.com. It is based on common sense and we would ask everyone to read and comply with this guidance. Any parent or guardian who does not want their child photographed for any reason should talk in confidence to the team's coach or manager. We will then take all reasonable steps to ensure the child is not photographed whilst playing or training at the club. DOGS Dogs are not allowed on the club fields.
